I am a Survivor
addict. At the end of the first season, most viewers were shocked to
learn that Richard Hatch was the winner. Mark Burnett had us all
fooled! I had to find someone to talk to, so for the first time in
my life, I got online and found a chat room. That's where I met
Holly from So-Cal...also a Survivor fan, but we had so many other things
in common too: cats, gardening, and our love of words. |
Holly and
I met online in 2000, but we met for the first time in person when she
paid me a visit in Ann Arbor on September 6, 2002. We spent a joyous
24 hours together, visiting the Matthei Botanical Gardens, dining at Grizzly
Peak, looking at each other's photo albums, and even making a quick
trip to Canada (Holly's first!). |

My
smallest and sweetest friend in the whole world, Elliott. He's 4
pounds of miniature canine perfection. His mom, Susan, made T-shirts
for the Billiards Room. That's how I met Elliott. |
Elliott was the
biggest-smallest fan (and unofficial mascot) of the 2005 National Champion U
of M Women's Softball Team |
